Chapter 1: Confusion (Lilly's point of view)

Where am I, man my head hurts I thought. Then I saw that I was on the ground, in what looked like sailor's clothes. It's raining

"Are you all right miss?"

"Excuse me?" then I saw standing above me was a young man holding a lamp over his head, speaking with a English accent.

"I'm fine" I stood, and the man was about two inches taller then I am. He wrapped his jacket around me as the rain started to pick up

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, thank you." The man is dark and handsome, with a triangle shaped hat and a long ponytail.

"Why are you out here, miss?"

"I don't know how I got here, or anything for that matter."

"Beg your pardon, miss, um do you remember name?"

"All I remember is that my name is Lilly and I'm 16 years old, then everything is blank."

"Well, Ms. Lilly, do you know where u live?"

"Wait one minute, could you tell me where I am?"

"You're in Boston, miss" he said, and looked very worried.

I turned around and saw the wharf, the candle lit lamp post, the dirt road, and the wooden ships.

"What year is it?" I asked, shocked.

"1775," he replied, he looked very concerned. "Miss, since you cant remember where you live, would you like to come stay with my family and I?"

Still shocked, I nodded and he took my hand, then led me down the road. I don't belong here, I don't belong here, I don't belong, kept going through my head and I was confused. How did I get here? What is my name? Who am I?

I was so deep in thought I didn't realize the man was talking to me.

"Excuse me?"

"I said, miss, that my name is James Alexander Thompson, and I'm 17 years old."

"oh I'm sorry, I zone out sometimes." He looked confused. "I mean I get very distracted." He nodded. We were silent for a few minutes, then we came up to a house with a little lit candle in the window.

"This is my home," he said, started leading me inside.

Chapter 1: Confusion (James' point of view)

I need some fresh air, I thought, I don't want to marry yet, there's no girl I want to marry. I sighed, pulled my coat closer around me and took a lamp with me as I walked down the stairs of the kitchen door. I kept walking with the gravel crunching under my boots, I stared at the moon for a moment .

I thought If only I could meet a girl that I could love. I started walking again.

After a few moments of deep thought, I saw a figure on the ground.

I walked closer, then I saw it was a girl, I started to run. I checked her heart beat, then she started to stir. I see her hazel eyes open and blink at the rain that just started to fall. She rubbed her blonde hair and looked around. Her eyes lingered on me.

"Are you all right, miss?" I said, for some unknown reason I was very concerned.

"Excused me?" she asked, she stood and being a gentleman, I gave her my coat.

"I'm fine"

"Are you sure?" I asked

"Yes, thank you."

"Why are you out here, miss?"

"I don't know how I got here, or anything for that matter."

"Beg your pardon, miss, um do you remember your name?"

"All I remember is that my name is Lilly and I'm 16 years old, then everything is blank."

"Well, Ms. Lilly, do you know where you live?"

"wait one minute, could you tell me where I am?"

"You're in Boston, miss" I said, very worried.

She looked around her again

"What year is it?" She asked, She sounded shocked.

"1775," I replied, Even more concerned. "Miss, since you cant remember where you live, would you like to come stay with my family and I?"

She nodded and I took her hand, then led her down the road. Tell her your name nitwit, I looked at her and said "my name is James Alexander Thompson, and I'm 17 years old." She didn't answer for a minute.

"Excuse me?" she said, dazed

"I said, miss, that my name is James Alexander Thompson, and I'm 17 years old."

"oh I'm sorry, I zone out sometimes." Zone out? What phrase is that? "I mean I get very distracted." I nodded. We were silent for a few minutes, then we came up to my family's pub, I lead her up to the door.

"This is my home," I said, leading her inside.
